Determination of Five Bioactive Constituents in Traditional Chinese Medicinal Preparation Shandanshaoyao Tang by High Performance Liquid Chromatography

Separation and determination of three water-soluble compounds in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge and two related traditional medicinal preparations by flow injection-capillary electrophoresis

“…Therefore, a simple and rapid method to determine these three components simultaneously is highly desired for controlling drugs quantity validly. So far, several methods such as colorimetric method [12], ultraviolet spectrophotometric method [13], thin layer chromatography (TLC) [14], high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) [15][16][17], RP-HPLC [18,19], and highperformance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) [20][21][22][23], MEKC [24] have been reported for the determination of water-soluble components in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge or in pharmaceutical preparations. Nevertheless, the first two methods were usually interfered by other compounds, TLC lacked quantitative precision, while HPLC appeared to be efficient and time-consuming; most of the CE methods only focused on one or two compounds of water-soluble constituents in Danshen.…”

Simultaneous determination of gallic acid, albiflorin, paeoniflorin, ferulic acid and benzoic acid in Si–Wu decoction by high-performance liquid chromatography DAD method

“…It is, therefore, necessary to analyze the percentage of the marker constituents in a decoction in order to evaluate Si-Wu decoction and to preliminarily elaborate the drug interactions after decocting process. Several high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods and capillary electrophoretic methods have been developed for the determination of these constituents in herbs and Chinese medicinal preparations [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. However, none of these methods is able to simultaneously separate these five compounds of Si-Wu decoction.…”

High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography: Quantitative Analysis of Chinese Herbal Medicine

“…Analytical methods are needed to investigate the quality of Chinese herbal preparations and the active ingredients involved. High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is one of the few analytical techniques that can be employed for the analysis of TCM preparations (1)(2)(3)(4). The applications of HPLC in undergraduate laboratories for the analysis of food (5)(6)(7)(8)(9) and drugs (10,11) can be found in several publications.…”
